    will a pci-e x16 v1.1 slot run a 980ti card?

    I am planning on building a new system as soon as Broadwell-e and updated x99 boards are out. Need a new video card now. Would prefer waiting on Pascal for my new build. Maybe just get a 970 or 980 for old system now? Any more thoughts? Thanks for all of your input!

    Best Motherboards For The Money: October 2014 (Archive)

    I am getting ready to due my last build ever. At 66 I want to build a high end air cooled system. I was leaning toward the Asus X99 Deluxe motherboard, but I don't see it listed in your review. Is it bad or just expensive, or is there another reason for it not being listed?
